My grandparents celebrated their 50th. Wedding Anniversary on Sept. 27 and our family planned a big party for them on Sat., Oct. 18. Everyone had such a great time and it definitely made all of the planning worth it!
Nana & Pop (aka: Carole & Jimmy) were married on Sept. 27, 1958 in Clacton-On-Sea, England. They met at a town hall dance:) Pop was in the Air Force and was stationed there at the time. After moving all over the U.S. and even some time in Japan, they eventually landed at Pop's hometown of Fulton, KY where they finished raising all of their 5 kids and a few grandkids, too!
My grandparents mean the absolute world to me and celebrating their marriage with our family and some of their oldest and dearest friends was such a joy. There were several of Nana's girl friends who also married American soldiers and most of them are still married! It was so neat hearing stories and seeing several of them come and celebrate with them. They looked like little teenagers with the giggling and non-stop dancing:)
